    • RE: Would you like to report your weather station data to Windy? (depreciated)

      @ivo

      1. What type of weather station you have
        Arduino
      2. Do you report your data to some other Internet website?
        Yes, to my personal site, and to APRS/CWOP
      3. How technically do you send your reports to this other website. Which software or protocol do you use.
        HTTP POST content type application/json to my website.
        HTTP POST content type application/octet-stream to APRS/CWOP.
      4. Do you have any tips and ideas, how should our reporting API look like?
        As long as it's lightweight, fast, and well documented. What protocols are you looking at? Would be great if you had the option of the following to post data to Windy:
        HTTP POST/GET
        MQTT
        OPC-UA
        Websocket
      5. Would you be willing to offer your station data to anyone else (not only windy.com) as open data?
        Of course.

      Absolutely outstanding, this is great. Very easy to upload data this way. Thank you for including both GET and POST methods.

    • Windy has swapped locations for 2 stations

      @Korina was the contact but she's gone radio silent on this issue.

      Windy has locations swapped for 2 stations that need to be corrected.

      This station (AV879) -> https://www.windy.com/station/madis-AV879?46.817,-119.886,8 is incorrectly sited near Beverly, WA on Windy's site.

      Going to AV879's page on weather.gov -> https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=av879 shows that it is actually near Osceola, IN.

      By looking at both pages for AV879, you can compare readings and see that they are identical.

      This station (AV884) -> https://www.windy.com/station/madis-AV884?41.709,-86.078,8 is incorrectly sited near Osceola, IN on Windy's site.

      Going to AV884's page on weather.gov -> https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=av884 shows that it is actually near Beverly, WA

      By looking at both pages for AV884, you can compare readings and see that they are identical.

      Somehow on Windy's side, AV884 and AV879 got switched.

      @Korina Thank you for your patience and help with this.

      I apologize, I don't understand the question. I will do my best to answer.

    • RE: Wrong data being pulled from Madis

      @Korina My apologies for the delay. Here's the direct link on Windy.

      https://www.windy.com/station/madis-AV879?46.801,-119.865,13

      (Looking at the windy link, I can see already that the issue is somehow AV879 in Osceola, IN somehow got swapped with AV884 on Windy's end.)

      Thank you,

    • Wrong data being pulled from Madis

      There's a station near Beverly, WA, KF7SHY-11 that's having it's wind speed/gust under reported.

      For example, right now windy reports 1mph sustained, gusts to 2. However the station itself is reporting 9mph gusts to 13.

      Here's the link to the station direct from Madis:
      https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=av884

      This is one of our flying sites so getting the wind corrected would be super helpful :)

      Thank you for all your work that you do, cheers!
